Ecuador pt.2

After returning from the Galapagos islands we started driving south from Quito toward the border with Peru, making a longer stop in Banos, a hot mineral water town. For all you hot springs connoisseurs, this place can be passed over if pressed for time without remorse. It is big on tourists and small on hot springs. Most of Ecuador impressed us as much as Colombia. I travel feeling guilty that I don't have enough time to see even a small percentage of what I'd like.

Banos

Oldest church in Ecuador. We found it by accident as we got lost.

Last gas station before entering Peru and the drastic difference in the price of gas clearly shows. As I wait in line my dad cooks a meal.
